We inspire Lausanne 5th grade newspaper!


Yes, the Lausanne 5th grade newspaper in Tennessee was inspired by Flourish. Alicia Tirone and Eleanor Bates created it, and it will be out in their school soon. WHen we know more, more details will come.

It is such an honor to have inspired people all the way in Tennessee!

And that's why that kitty is smiling! *points right*

Wednesday Wonders(Every other week)

Hey, Wednesday Wonders is where we post shocking or moving stuff every other week.

Carnage in India; hotels under siege

Gunmen have targeted nine locations in south Mumbai, including two luxury hotels. A state spokesman put the death toll at 78. Gunmen are holding hostages at the Taj Mahal and Oberoi hotels, police said. One witness told reporters gunmen had tried to find people with U.S. or British passports.

Thanks to CNN for this data!
